Trichomes turning cloudy early??

Strain: Blue dream
Medium: Coco in cloth pots
Nutrients: AN Jungle Juice/cal-mag/bud candy/overdrive

Had anyone else had an instance of their trichomes going cloudy and plant maturing early?

I have a strain of Blue Dream that says 8-10 week flower, but I could swear I’m just finishing week 6 of bloom. The colas look good and are super healthy, hairs are about 60% amber, and trichomes are almost all pretty milky. Could it be that they are just ready early? I’m still seeing new hair growth on the plants.

I vegg’d them for about 12 weeks instead of 6 to get some solid branch development for nutrient delivery and plant integrity. Could this have anything to do with it??

How much longer should I go with these?

Also, does anyone know the average time it takes for trichomes to flip from clear to cloudy? I have two other diesel plants mostly clear and I want to harvest them together if possible.

(Yes I had some slight nute burn early on, but caught it quick)

Go at least 9 weeks of actual bloom … disregard any breeder ‘ estimates ‘ …. Plant finishes as long as needed.

I usually pull BD at 10 weeks depending on grow style.

Not ready yet but looking good. Check back in 2-3 weeks at least.
As far as harvest together with the other strain, good luck with that. In my experience the harvest window overlaps some between strains but it's not a peak harvest at the same time sort of thing.

I'd give it another 4 weeks or so easy. They look great though. And if you're looking at trichs, make sure you're looking at the buds and not the leaves.
